Inside, new Escape features Ford's latest-generation SYNC 4 infotainment offering twice the computing power of the previous system. Integrating seamlessly with smartphones, it has 5G connectivity for fast access to information, cloud-connected navigation to help stay ahead of the jams, with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for cable-free access to key apps and information.
Advanced driver assistance technology supports an effortless, comfortable drive in even the most challenging conditions, claims Ford. The new generation Adaptive Cruise Control can now apply the brakes automatically for curves and junctions as well as other traffic, while the 360- degree camera system offers an aerial view so that parking, preparing to hitch up a trailer or even using an automatic car wash are a breeze.
Ford says that practicality is at the heart of new Escape's interior, offering comfort and convenience ready for adventures in the city and beyond. Sliding second row seats can boost legroom to over 1 metre for rear occupants or create up to 150 litres of extra boot space.
Advanced lighting technology helps to improve comfort and confidence for the driver, with full LED headlights including Automatic High Beam Control as standard on ST-Line X models.
